Rachael Krefman-Castellon
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist -
PLEASE NOTE: I will be taking maternity leave, beginning June 19, 2020. Due to this upcoming leave, I am currently unable to accept new clients. I will also not be available to respond to any messages that I may receive. I anticipate being able to resume accepting new clients in early August. Thank you for your understanding!
Since finishing my MSW program in 2009 at the University of Michigan, my career has been focused on helping teens and adults make positive changes in their daily lives.I encourage clients to challenge thoughts that have resulted in feelings of anxiety, sadness, hopelessness, helplessness, or other mental health concerns. My goal is to help clients live more peacefully. I provide face-to-face therapy at my office in Brighton, Michigan, or I can provide web-based services to individuals anywhere in Michigan.
I love providing support for people who are open-minded, insightful, and engaged. I particularly enjoy working with clients with a sense or humor.
